About this Home

Mogogosiek was opened in 2000 after being built with the support of a European missionary. It is described as the Garden of Eden within Kenya.

As the gates open from the road, you see beautiful flowers and well-manicured grass. There is a large garden which provides all of the vegetables for the children. Beyond the garden is a playground complete with a merry-go-round, swings, and a slide.

A small tea field, some fruit trees and pineapple plants, the chicken coop, and the zero-grazing cow shed complete the perimeter of the campus. There is also a nursery school on campus for the children to attend, as well as children from the community.

In the center of these projects is a group of young women who care tirelessly for infants, toddlers, and preschool children! Some of the children arrive at the home without a name or any identity, others come with a grieving father who has just lost his wife in childbirth and is not able to provide care for his tiny infant baby.

Once his child is old enough to attend school, he will be happy to care for him. Until then he visits regularly.

Each baby has their own unique story and yet as they spend this critical time at the home growing and developing, they find family here. They find love and a chance of survival that they did not have when they arrived.

One Child's Story

Diana

When Diana was born, her mother was diagnosed with a virus, and her family struggled with limited food. Tragically, her mother passed away, and later, her father was also diagnosed with the same virus, making him unable to care for the children.

Although Diana’s life had many uncertainties until she arrived at the baby home, we believe her future now holds more promise than ever before.

At the baby home, some infants arrive without a name. Here, they not only have the opportunity to survive each new day but are also cherished and nurtured by dedicated staff.
